While I wondered if this cabin would be in a remote area it was in fact the perfect location for exploring the island and had the quietest neighbors, including a fox and deer that appear to be friends! We were very comfortable at the Shubert Bungalow. It is very well equipped and very clean.The master bedroom has a Perfect Sleeper king bed and the other bedroom has two single beds and the room is intended for children but our 24 year old daughter slept there. If we were to suggest anything it would be to improve the mattresses in the kids room with a pillow top. Kids can sleep on most anything, but not adults. We put the comforter in the closet under the sheet to help make it a bit softer for our daughter and she was fine. We enjoyed having the deck for morning coffee. We also used the grill and made seafood kabobs one night. There's a collection of brochures in the area with restaurants and places of interest to help with planning. We were very comfortable at the Shubert and would definitely recommend it to visitors on the island.

Excellent location in Seal Harbor. You are less than a mile from a Carriage road (not a real entrance, but there is a small path to get there). It is closer and easier to access than if you stay around Bar Harbor. Further, Seal Harbor is a nice and quiet area, away from the noise and "excitement" of downtime (negative when you have young children). Further, there is still a small restaurant, pizzeria and coffee house nearby. The beach in Seal Harbor is also cozy and easier to access than the Sand beach. It is also a few degrees warmer.The living room is large. The kitchen is very well equipped. For kids: the back yard is a good place to play. But if they need to spend more energy, there is a large playground a few house down on the street. And kids' equipment: GREAT! Usually, "games" means a deck of cards and a monopoly box missing pieces. At the Shubert bungalow, a closet was spilling with games for all ages, from toddler to Risk and Clue. Further, there are plenty of DVDs and books.

My family had visited MDI two years previous and had made the mistake of renting a place south of Southwest Harbor. At the Bungalow, we could literally be hiking around Jordan Pond just minutes after we left the house. So the location is great for getting around Acadia NP and the playground down the street was great for our kids when they needed additional diversions.

We were pleased with the set up of the house and the kitchen was well-stocked. We baked muffins and made a birthday cake using the trays and pans provided.

Our only issues were beyond the control of the manager. There had been a power outage so the oven had to be reset. But once we knew to pull the circuit breaker, it worked just fine. We also had issues with the wifi but Ginger was on it and tried to resolve it as soon as possible.

My only word of caution is that the shower in the master bedroom might seem a little small. My husband was a little claustrophobic but he just used the larger one. Thankfully, both showers were designed for TALL people and had shower heads mounted up high. That is a great thing!

This place was stocked with just about everything you need, including lobster pot and crackers. It's in a very quiet neighborhood which makes for wonderful uninterrupted sleeping (except for that one night when the wounded fox started making his weird fox sounds, but he wasn't around for long). The location is perfect for striking out for Bar Harbor and the park attractions. We could ride our bikes directly from the house to the carriage paths near Jordon Pond House, or go right to the pond house. With a very short drive, we were able to launch our kayaks in Seal Harbor and paddle through the beautiful sailboats and hang out on the little island at the mouth of the harbor (with secret hut that has its own bbq!). The house itself has all the creature comforts you'd ever want, including a keurig coffee maker and 2 large flat screen TVs, and wi-fi. Great place.

We arrived to a very clean and nice place with a welcome book on the table with helpful information on local attractions. Everything we needed to make the stay complete was easy to find. The place felt like home within minutes. The location was perfect, not right in the middle of all the big crowds, but close to anything that we wanted to do (and there was plenty to choose from). We enjoyed many nights out on the quiet deck and felt relaxed for the entire stay. There was nothing I feel that deserves a complaint or that I would say I "liked least". For staying in the Shubert Bungalow, I would have to say was one of our favorite vacations, and I would definitely go back. The owner always responded in a timely manor, and also answered all of our questions right away. We never had to contact the owner for anything during our stay.
